Am I feeding to much salad?

Hi, I give Tequila about a cup of chopped greens, using collards and chiccory endive right now, a couple of Tble spoons each of finely shredded squash and sweet potato, a Tble spoon of another veggie (i try to change it weekly) and occasionally a half a Tble spoon of fruit. Is this enough, or too much? Thanks for any replies. Oh, Tequila is about a year old, give or take a few months.

Is s/he eating all of it or are you consistently throwing a portion away every day?

all of my adults eat at least that, but almost always more. Sometime just feed her about twice that and see how much of it she eats, that should give you an idea of the correct portions.

I don't believe there is such a thing as too much veggies in their diet. We always feed them more than they can eat. Though it may be wasteful on our part, it assures that they all get their fill rather than being on half empty.

We try to feed enough so that the dragon is satisfied but not so much that it is wasted in the cages. Experiment, do like Mike said and feed twice as much and see how the dragon responds. Does it eat it all or leave it all untouched? I've found that skipping a day makes them more interested in the vegtables.
